Mr. Fleming.
I can't think of anything.
Mr. Hubert.
I am sure we have not met before today?
Mr. Fleming.
That's right.
Mr. Hubert.
We did have a short conversation off the record prior to beginning the recordation of your testimony, but I ask you if it is not a fact that everything that was discussed off the record was subsequently discussed on the record?
Mr. Fleming.
It was.
Mr. Hubert.
All right, sir, thank you very much.
